In his 1979 book the Ecology of Human development, Urie Bronfenbrenner explained the importance of the various nested systems viz. the microsystem, the mesosystem, the exosystem, the macrosystem and the chronosystem for the complete development of human being right from the womb up to a fully grown individual. == The five systems == The microsystem refers to the setting in which the individual behaves at a given point of his life. A set of microsystems within a given period of development constitutes the mesosystem. The exosystem refers to the contexts though not directly involved with the developing individual. For e.g the office of the child's parent, which has an influence on the child's overall behaviour and development. The macrosystem refers to the culture, government and public policy under which the individual develops. It also influences child's interaction with other levels of systems. (Bronfenbrenner model ) ''Source: Santrok 2007'' Later he also integrated biology, psychology and behaviour into the model thus labeling it as the bio-ecological model. Conflict or modifications in a layer will have a ripple effect in the other layers. To understand a child’s development then, we must look not only analyse child's immediate environment, but also the interaction with the larger environment as well. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Role of technology in Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
